John Ashley (1934-1997) was an American actor, singer, and producer.
Ashley appeared in many popular beach movies of the 1960s, including Beach Blanket Bingo, Beach Party, Muscle Beach Party, Bikini Beach, and How to Stuff a Wild Bikini.
He later enjoyed success as a television producer, working on several shows including The A-Team and Walker, Texas Ranger.
Notes[]
- John Ashley is listed in the credits of a film released on VHS under the title The Revenge of Dr. X (which became a RiffTrax presentation in 2012), though he does not appear in the film. The film in this VHS release was actually the film The Venus Flytrap, written by Edward D. Wood Jr.. It had appeared on a double bill at one point alongside The Mad Doctor of Blood Island (which features John Ashley) and this seems to have been the source of the incorrect credits.
